Ostrowski Doubles via Berlin
Level 25
: Blinds 50,000/75,000, 75,000 ante
Devid Berlin opened to 175,000 from the cutoff, and was faced with a three-bet jam by Dominik Ostrowski in the big blind to 1,025,000. Berlin made the quick call.
Dominik Ostrowski: K♥Q♦ 
Devid Berlin: 9♠9♥
Berlin was ahead in a race, and the 10♥3♦J♠ flop was an action one, Ostrowski flopping an up and down straight draw to give him extra outs as well as his overcards.
To Berlin's disgust, the 9♦ rolled off on the turn to give Ostrowski the king-high straight, and the 2♣ river did not pair the board as Berlin required, sending Ostrowski a timely double-up.
